A CBS News investigation recently found that many accused American pedophiles flee to Israel, and bringing them to justice can be difficult because of the protection they receive from the Jewish state.
More than 60 sex offenders from Jewish communities in the United States have fled to the Promised Land and are hiding mainly in ultra-Orthodox communities in Jerusalem.
The law enforcement agencies have failed to address the problem, leaving the work to civilian organizations in the U.S., which track down these people in Israel and helps arrest them.
This was the case with Jimmy Karow, a dangerous sex offender who appeared on Interpol’s 50 most-wanted list and who hid in Israel for the last 20 years having fled there after sexually assaulting a nine-year-old girl in Oregon. Since his arrival in Israel, where he is known as Yosef, Karow was convicted in another pedophilia case and even jailed but was never punished for the assault in Oregon.
Thanks to community citizen groups and their pressure, in 2019 he was arrested and brought to justice.
Another case mentioned in the CBS report is Mordechai Yomtov, who pleaded guilty in 2002 to abusing three boys before fleeing to Israel.
A community group was able to track him down in Jerusalem, where he is living illegally, and spoke to him while recording him with a hidden camera.
Yomtov did not admit to any wrongdoing in the case of Mendy Hauck, who was allegedly abused as an eight-year-old when Yomtov worked as a Hebrew teacher. The reported offenses took place in 1999. Police arrested Yomtov in 2001 for sexually assaulting three other boys, aged 8 to 10, at a Los Angeles cheder (religious school for boys).
According to the Forward, He pleaded guilty, served a year in jail, and was required to register as a sex offender. Once freed on probation in 2002, however, Yomtov fled the US via Mexico, where he was able to continue fleeing to Israel with a fake passport. He remains at large to this day.
And then there is Malka Leifer, who was wanted in Australia for no less than 74 counts of sexual assault and rape involving eight of the girls at the ultra-Orthodox school in Melbourne where she was the principal. Leifer was arrested, after fleeing to Israel in 2008 but managed to dodge a trial on the grounds of mental incompetence.
Only in February 2018 was she re-arrested on suspicion of pretending to be mentally ill in order to avoid extradition. Her re-arrest was the result of work by community groups that tracked her down and not the Israeli government.
Israeli Health Minister Yaakov Litzman is the subject of an ongoing criminal investigation over suspicions that he used his position to help Leifer.
Israeli authorities eventually extradited Malka Leifer to Australia after pressure from community organizations and several governments early in early 2021, nearly 13 years after she fled Melbourne after a six-year legal process during which a court determined that she had feigned mental illness in order to avoid facing justice.
